From fb68f507618ab5479471384cc4a1fa8b4bfa99fe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nick Mathewson Date: Wed, 7 Jan 2015 10:39:44 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Lower the delay before saving guard status to disk "Maybe this time should be reduced, since we are considering guard-related changes as quite important? It would be a pity to settle on a guard node, then close the Tor client fast and lose that information." Closes 12485. --- changes/bug12485 | 4 ++++ src/or/entrynodes.c | 4 ++-- 2 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) create mode 100644 changes/bug12485 diff --git a/changes/bug12485 b/changes/bug12485 new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..53ce33ef7b --- /dev/null +++ b/changes/bug12485 @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ + o Minor features (Guard nodes): + - Reduce the time delay before saving guard status to disk from 10 + minute to 30 seconds (or from one hour to 10 minutes if + AvoidDiskWrites is set).
